Default All Users! Regarding subscribed threads

Attention all users.

If you find yourself missing your subscribed threads, it's because I removed them from your profile due to being hammered by returned mail error emails that I and the other admins are getting slammed with. There are so many in fact, it's hard to sift through them to find people that actually need our help and emailed us. This presents a large problem.

Because of this, when the forums are updated to the next version of vbulletin, the subscription emails will be removed completely as an option. You will only be able to view subscribed threads in your UserCP.

I am sorry it's come down to this, but with many users just not keeping an eye on their mailbox or using a bad email provider, we're paying the price for it.

But on a lighter note, don't think of the next upgrade to be a bad thing, just wait. This is basically the only bad news that comes from it.. you guys are going to get a ton of new features to play with. I won't get into that yet though.

Edit:

As it turns out, this feature will not be disabled. We will have alternative methods of managing returned emails that will allow us to retain this feature for those that use it.

If you complain about being spammed by it, perhaps you should edit how it's sent in your UserCP?
